Default Timing belt kit (2006 RX330)

Bought our '06 RX330 in 2009 (a one-owner with 39K on it). Joined the forum at that time, but I'm more of a reader than a poster and I'm looking for some assistance.

I've done the search and found lots of info on changing the timing belt, but can't seem to find one piece of info I need. I saw some references here to a kit from Sewell Lexus, but couldn't find a kit listed on their site. Can anyone help me out on that one? Also, what is the Club Lexus discount code?

We are closing in on 92K, and I figured this summer would be a good time to get it changed, along with the water pump, etc. as long as we're in the neighborhood -- hence the idea of the kit.

When you register for an account with Sewell it gives you the opportunity to select Forum Membership Information (Optional). Once you have done that anything you have added to the cart will get its discount automatically.

Think about changing the accessory belts as well.

RX330,

Thanks for the links. The extended kit was what I was looking for.

Glad you also linked the accessory belts. Also have a VW Passat, and their kits generally include what this kit has in the extended kit plus the accessory belts, so I was also planning on replacing those other belts while I was at it.

No problem. Chances were that the belts had not been replaced previous and while you had everything apart you might as well replace those as well. Was trained well.

Wait until 115 or 120K friend. Belt is not even worn yet.
